Chinese Manufacturer Benda Reveals New V4 Engine With 150 Horsepower

Benda has previously created headlines in the media with the modern and outlandishly styled LFC 700 power cruiser and the small, entry-level BD 300 cruiser. The Chinese now showcases its newest masterpieces: a pair of self-developed V4 engines. Given the engine's specs, as well as Benda's fondness for cruisers, we might soon be seeing more power cruisers from the brand equipped with V4 engines.

The new Benda V4's largest displacement is 1,198 cc, making it a smidgeon bigger than Aprilia's and Ducati's powerful four-cylinder engines, which have displacements of 1,099 and 1,103 cubes, respectively. The China V4 will inevitably be contrasted to the Panigale, RSV4, and Tuono in terms of performance. It's somewhat underpowered, but far from feeble, with a claimed 154 horsepower at 9,500 rpm. Benda's new V4 engine also produces 89 foot-pounds of torque at 7,500 rpm.
